This story takes place during the "Great Depression"... During this time, the rail road yards were full of "Hobo's" just waiting to jump trains in search of new beginnings wherever the trains would take them... Facing the tracks, were rows of houses which became targets for the hungry hobos to go and beg for food... One afternoon, there came a knock at the door of one of the cottages... as the widowed mother of three opened the door... she was faced with a hungry hobo, barely able to speak due to his weakness, but who managed to whisper urgent pleas for food... unfortunately, the widow had to turn the hobo away... there was just not enough food for her children... well, this weighed heavily on the lady's heart and mind all thru the night... she thought about him and wondered if he had found food during the night.... The next afternoon, came another knock on her door... but when she opened the door on THIS day, she saw the hungry hobo, completely covered in blood, holding his decapitated head by the hair and saying, "Oh, I'm hungry, so hungry"... well, of course the widow was so shocked, that she fainted... and when she came to.. she grabbed the kids and headed to her parents house (near Mumpower Park, YAPIDKA)... where she learned that there had been a terrible accident during the night... Apparently, the hungry hobo had tried to jump a train that was either moving too fast or due to his malnutrition, he fell under the train where his head was decapitated from his body.... When you arrive at GZ you will be facing the entrance to the Columbia Ave underpass... this is the underpass where the headless, hungry hobo has been spotted on MANY occasions... walking, holding his head by the hair in his right hand and moaning, "Oh, I'm hungry, so hungry"... so while you drive through the underpass, be sure and "blow your horn" to keep the hobo away.... and just in case... you might want to have a little food with ya!
Now, get out there and play!!! :)
